I recommend you build your generators in elevated positions to get the most out of your copper. The maximum length of a wire is fixed, but can be cut short by obstacles, hanging on the ground, and so on. Power pylons can be used to run line from a generator to far-away devices or a conduit. Active devices need a line running directly into them, while passive devices need either a nearby connected pylon or wall socket to work. Active devices like laser turrets and water purifiers that require units of power to run (meaning your generator has to be able to match their power draw to keep everything working), and passive devices like lights and traps that can run off the ambient grid. Basically, you have two kinds of powered devices at your disposal.
How you provide power to your settlements is poorly explained in-game but essential for making a great homestead, so be prepared to mess with it.
